Importing ZSY files

Using content

Program: Allplan 2016

FSY files are Allplan symbol libraries from an Allplan version before 2016. The number of symbols in the library depends on the file size.

Note: To import ZSY files, you require the administration file (ZSY000.000). Allplan cannot read the symbol library without the administration file.

To import ZSY files

1. Download the file.
2. Decompress the file and save it in any folder on your computer.
3. Start Allplan 2016.
4. Open the Library palette.
5. Select the External path folder.
6. Click Add path at the bottom of the toolbar and select the folder with the decompressed files.

   Allplan automatically converts the data if this is necessary.

   Note: Data conversion can take some time, in particular, when Allplan converts all symbol folders. If you know which folders you want to use in Allplan 2016, you should select these data in Windows Explorer and move them to a separate folder.

7. Copy the folders or library elements you want to use from the External path folder to a different folder, such as the Office, Private or Project folder.
